    Best detailing kit ever!!

    These products did everything as described, but even better.

    The drying towel dried the entire car and almost didn’t even feel like it had water in it. The interior cleaner smells very good and leaves a nice new looking finish. The glass cleaner was streak free, And the tire shine made the tires look like new. I am absolutely going to buy this product again whenever I run out.

    Great value for a great product

    Had to wait a bit for delivery due to how popular the sale was. But it was well worth it. I've managed to get one good wash in between the bad weather and can't wait for the sun to return so I can wash both cars
